Dealing from charts
You can drag and drop orders directly onto your charts - and adjust with just a click.
Orders are displayed as lines on the chart, and deals are activated when the lines are breached.
Any orders placed from charts are reflected in the working orders panel of our trading platform. Your orders to close will also appear on the chart, and can also be edited. Enhanced dealing functionality includes the ability to:
- Close positions through the charts
- Attach stops and limits to your existing positions
- Amend stops and limits on working orders
- See stops and limits illustrated within the charts
Dealing from charts is available from our real-time charts and Advanced Charts package. Just activate the feature in the 'My Account' area of the trading platform, then open the standalone charting package. There is a special help section in the trading platform that you can access through the 'Tools' menu.
To learn more about charts, come to one of our in-person charting seminars.
